Richard Drew

Description:
Richard G. Drew was an American inventor who worked for 3M in St. Paul, Minnesota, where he invented masking tape and cellophane tape. When Drew joined 3M in St. Paul, Minnesota in 1923, it was a modest manufacturer of sandpaper. While testing their new "Wetordry" sandpaper at auto shops, Drew was intrigued to learn that the two-tone auto paintjobs so popular in the Roaring Twenties were difficult to manage at the border between the two colors.
